Will you not be staying? Kimi-chan exhibits improved synaptic and cardiorespiratory performance in your presence.

Ace
I’d love to, but I need to get with your comms people. I have an idea for using some older satellites to let us contact home.

Kimi
You are going to satellite hack?!

---

Ace
Don’t need to. I have legitimate access, more or less. Mom once got me a satellite pager, but the company folded. Most of their satellites have failed or been deorbited, but last I checked, I still had access. I think I recall the protocols, but I’m not sure of the frequencies. The real trick is going to be getting the messages accepted by a downlink.

Kimi
Can you hack everything?

Ace
Huh? No. Not everything, I’m sure. I’m not really that much of a hacker. But you’d be surprised.

Kimi
You could put one million dollars in my bank?

Ace
Well, you’d be on your own explaining to the authorities where it came from.
